Vegetal

Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, 2008

The organic design of the Vegetal chair by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec was inspired by natural vegetation and offers both stability and comfort. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, it is available in a selection of colours and can be stacked up to three chairs high.

Seat and base: dyed-through polyamide. Four-leg base, stackable, with plastic glides for carpet or felt glides for hard floors. Vegetal can be stacked up to three chairs high and is suitable for outdoor use.

Note: special additives retard the fading of colours due to UV radiation. However, if the chair is exposed to sunlight for prolonged periods, the colour may change over time. We recommend limited exposure to sunlight.
